Mogrt Not Playing Videos - Just Freezes them

Hello Premiere Pro Community,

 

I'm have a mogrt created in After Effects that I imported into Premiere Pro. For some reason Premiere Pro will not replace the image placeholder with any kind of video file. Within Premiere Pro, the playback just freezes the video on the same frame. I've done this several times before without issues. The first image is my After Effects Essential Graphics Panel. The second image is my Premiere Pro Graphics Templates/Properties Panel. Does anything jump out that I could be missing here?

 

 

The video functions fine in After Effects. In Premiere Pro, if I double-click on the image thumbnail, it opens a sequence for it and plays the video in within its own sequence. But it just won't play in my final sequence. 

 

For After Effects I'm on Version 25.2.2. For Premiere Pro, I'm on Version 25.2.3. Any thoughts?

Brandon,

Are you running any audio plug-ins? Disable them, then see if it works. You can also check out this thread: https://adobe.ly/3G1Otye. Also, if you are using Libraries, drag the asset into a local folder first, then import it from there. I hope the advice helps. Take care.

 

Cheers,
Kevin

Unfortunately, removing the audio did not make a difference.

Hey Brandon,

Have you checked out our documentation to see if any changes to the workflow have occurred? https://adobe.ly/3HTM60X. Let me know.


Thanks,
Kevin

 


I just now read through that link. But nothing really jumps out at me as odd with my mogrt, and I'm pretty sure I did everything by the book. The only variable I can think of that's changed is just the version of Premiere Pro. I've done this a lot of times before.
